tasty but very strong flavor
i made as the recipe suggested but i found that the miso paste and the nutritional yeast were a bit too much.
i would suggest to start with half the amount and add as you go (;

14 oz package extra firm tofu (drained and pressed)

nutritional yeast

olive oil

salt

garlic garlic powder (omit for sweet dishes))

basil

soy milk

spinach ((or wilted spinach) thawed, drained and pressed)

spinach

Drain and press a container of extra firm tofu getting out as much liquid as possible.

Crumble the tofu into a large food processor.

Add 2 tbsp nutritional yeast, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, a clove of garlic, and a handful of basil.  (Omit the garlic and basil if you are using the ricotta for a sweet dish).

Blend well for 2 minutes in a food processor.  Add a splash of soy milk if needed to thin out the ricotta to a smooth spreadable texture.

Use as you would ricotta in your favorite recipes like stuffed shells, lasagna, ravioli, and more.

Thaw the frozen spinach then put it in a colander, press out the water and then add it to the ricotta.  Stir the spinach in with a spoon if you want it to stay in bigger pieces or add the spinach to the food processor and blend if you want it more hidden in the ricotta.

This vegan spinach lasagna is the ultimate family comfort food dish! We are so pleased with how our all plant-based version of tofu lasagna turned out. Get your baking dish ready and let’s get cooking!

Vegan Lasagna with Spinach

lasagna noodles ((standard size, enough for 3 layers))

½ large yellow onion, diced

zucchini,

mushrooms

garlic (roughly chopped)

(16-ounce) blocks of super-firm tofu (patted dry and

¼ cup of unsweetened, plain soy milk

basil basil leaves

marinara sauce (store-bought

basil leaves (for garnish (optional))

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the lasagna noodles according to the directions on the package. Drain the noodles, rinse with cold water to cool, and set aside.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, zucchini, mushrooms, and garlic and saute for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until slightly softened. Turned off the heat. Stir in the spinach, cover the skillet, and set aside to allow the spinach to wilt.

Place the tofu, soy milk, lemon juice, basil, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine. Depending on the size of your food processor, you may need to push everything down with a spoon several times between pulses so all the tofu gets evenly crumbled. When you reach a crumbly ricotta­style consistency, spoon the mixture into a large bowl. Stir in the sautéed vegetables and spinach until evenly combined.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (176 degrees C).

Spread 1 cup of the marinara sauce evenly across the bottom of a 9 × 13­inch baking dish. Follow this with a layer of 4 overlapping lasagna noodles, then a layer of half of the tofu mixture. Repeat with another 1 ½ cups of the marinara, another layer of noodles, and the second half of the tofu mixture. End with another 1 ½ cups of the marinara and a final layer of noodles, and spread the remaining 1 cup of marinara sauce on top, being sure to coat all the noodles.

Bake for 45 minutes. Garnish with the basil leaves (if using).
